Hello.
2
A lot of people wonder what my skincare routine is because they say that I have good skin, which is such a compliment, thank you.
3
So let's get unready.
4
The first thing I do is obviously take off my makeup.
5
I was wearing lashes this day and ripping them off felt so nice.
6
Oh, and also make sure to always wash your hands before you start.
7
Then I go in with the micellar water from Garnier.
8
I've tried other makeup removers and cleansing balms but nothing else takes off my waterproof mascara as thoroughly as this does.
9
I let my eyes soak in the cotton for a
10
while rather than rubbing it around just because it can be harsh on the skin and potentially create wrinkles.
11
I just let the remover marinate on my eyes and it wipes off my makeup so easily.
12
Don't forget to get that neck.
13
I do this until the cotton round comes out not as dirty as the first.
14
Next I go in with a cleanser.
15
This one is the White Seed Exfoliating Cleansing Foam from the face shop and I just use a pea-sized amount.
16
Make sure you lather it up in your hands first so that the product gets equally distributed.
17
I like this cleanser because it's gentle and not too drying.
18
Next I go in with a second cleanser
19
which is a new step for me because I usually just use one
20
but I noticed that cleansing twice really ensures that all the debris from my face is gone.
21
I've been using the soy face cleanser from Fresh for years and it cleans my skin really well.
22
After washing my face I wipe off the excess water so
23
that the products I'm putting on won't be diluted or drip off.
24
This toner is one of my holy grails.
25
It's the Aqua Licorice pH Balancing Cleansing Toner.
26
It has a 5.5 pH level that really helps to balance out your skin after you wash it.
27
It's really brightening and leaves my skin really soft.
28
Next, I go in with a serum.
29
I've been trying this dark spot correcting Glow Serum by Axis Y and it really helps to fade my hyperpigmentation.
30
I tap and use light hand movements for whenever I'm applying anything so that it absorbs better.
31
Another one of my holy grails is the Belief True Cream Moisturizing Balm.
32
I prefer water-based moisturizers over oil because it feels lighter on my skin while still being super hydrating.
33
I also try to do a face mask every week or two.
34
I really like the Innisfree Volcanic Clay one.
35
It really clears out my pores from all the makeup particles and sebum.
36
And of course, I have to end with a lip balm.
37
I've always had super dry lips, so I've tried dozens of products.
38
And surprisingly, Aquaphor has become one of my favorites.
39
And yeah, that's it.
40
It's really short, but hopefully this was helpful.
41
I'll link all the products in the description.
42
Thank you guys so much for watching.
43
Bye!

この動画で英語スピーキング練習する理由

日常的な会話に近い自然な英語が使われているため、英語シャドーイングに最適です。スキンケアルーティンを話すという身近なテーマなので、覚えやすく実用的な表現が多く含まれています。また、話し手の口調やリズムが自然で、shadow speakの練習を通して、英語の流れを掴みやすいです。生活に密着した内容なので、学んだ表現をすぐに自分の話に使えるのもメリットです。

文脈の中の文法と表現

  • "I've tried other makeup removers...":現在完了形を使って過去の経験を述べています。「~したことがある」という表現は日常会話でよく使われるので、覚えておくと便利です。
  • "Make sure you lather it up...":"make sure + 節"で「~するように確認する」という意味。アドバイスをするときに使える実用的な構文です。
  • "which is a new step for me because...":関係代名詞"which"を使って前文を説明し、"because"で理由を述べています。文を繋げる技法として重要です。

発音の注意点

英語の発音を良くするためには、以下の単語に注意が必要です。
"micellar"は/mɪˈselər/と発音し、"exfoliating"は/eksˈfoʊlieɪtɪŋ/です。両方とも発音が難しい単語ですが、動画を何度も聴きながらshadowspeakを練習することで、正しい発音が身につきます。また、"hyperpigmentation"は/haɪpərpɪɡmenˈteɪʃn/と長い単語ですが、分解して発音することで覚えやすくなります。話し手のリズムに合わせて発音すると、自然な英語に近づきます。

シャドーイングとは?英語上達に効果的な理由

シャドーイング(Shadowing)は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的:ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影(shadow)」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
